The streets and alleys of the slums are full of garbage and general filth. They are not a great place to be during the day, but at night they can be especially dangerous.

Winter sang softly to herself as she pulled her scarf up higher around her cheeks ad shuddered. She didn't much like the cold stagnant air that hung in the slums , nor the smell of human waste and the odd decomposing carcass of some trampled rat or house pet. Times like this made her grateful for the things she had back home...like a fireplace.....she'd need to pick up some more firewood today. There were a lot of benefits to being herself that Winter didn't typically realize. Her wealth was not one of them, but her ability to project an aura of "mess with me and you suffer" was definitely one of them. "Welcome to the end or eras ...

Aeryn walked behind her master without a word. She didn't appear to be cold, mostly because she was creating pressure, and converting energy, all around her so dense in the air that it caused a small bubble of warmth, though that was mostly because her master had not graced her with a scarf yet. Of course Aeryn would never ask for anything, only being given if her master were so kind, and she knew that in the slums there were very little niceties around each corner. And with each corner, she kept her attention peeled, ready to defend if need be from horrible witches.
When her master shuddered from the cold, Aeryn's dull eyes looked upon her back. It was very risky doing things without command, but a pang in the young girl's heat sent shivers up her spine. So, instead of doing nothing, she raised her hand to the small of Winter's back, and began to create the field around her. She would warm in a moment, and hopefully when she was sufficiently heated she would not harm Aeryn for acting upon herself. Not that it mattered to the girl, she didn't mind which way or the other.
The witch looked around her kin's disgusting slums and frowned. She could have been here, one of the unlucky ones, if fate was different. Instead she grew in lavish homes with a moderate amount of food set aside for her. She came close, but she did not starve, almost but did not die. And now, she thought looking to her master's back, she was in the care of a strong individual. What more could she ask for in life? What more could she greed for?

"Thanks love" she placesd her arm around the witch's shoulders and pulled her up to step into pace with her. "Keep close though, I don't think I could stand someone laying a hand on you."

The lips on the girl's face turned upward. It was not quite a smile, but it was a sign of genuine happiness at being accepted into the open arms of her master. When she felt the woman's flesh on hers, it sent a shiver down her spine to be so close. To not be beaten for acting upon herself was also an immaculate high for the girl, not that Winter would break out such hostility here in the open. That was more so reserved for other servants when they were back home. Aeryn's master enjoyed coming to the slums for potential servants, but also for supplies the land of night simply could not give.
If Aeryn could visibly blush she would be doing so now. She pushed it aside when her master was at a loss of what other equipment they needed before heading back home. She had listed the main ones for sustenance and comfortability, but with all of her thoughts she had forgotten a key ingredient. Which, of course, was to be expected of one that had so much on her mind. That was why she had the slave that was Aeryn. "Cocoa..?"

All the same I think we could do with some, bundling up next to the fireplace with a hot mug sounds delightful with the weather turning more chilly." Winter wanderd the streets, paying for everything they needed without any concern for the money she was flashing in front of the desperate and violent. "Well then" the vampire said as she gave a sniff to one of the small jars of herbs she'd purchased "Was there anything else we needed? Something perhaps you or one of the other servants wanted? AH! THat's right I also need to order a cask of bourbon." "Welcome to the end or eras ...

Aeryn smiled again, a bit wider this time. Out of all of her masters, she believed Winter was her favorite- even if she was a vampire. The only time she truly treated them poorly was when they were at the galas and social events. Those were rather few and far between, and it was much better than every night Aeryn had to go through with previous masters. Even now she didn't mind being a slave- the better to help people, she decided. There was no possible way she could leave the vampire alive, she was sure, but then again there was no reason to try.
The servant followed her master as they bought all the necessary ingredients. There weren't many that was on the list, but it made no matter to Winter as she seemed to enjoy the strolls around witch town. It was no home of Aeryn's, so walking amongst it was just like any other foreign place. She had no connection with witches, and she liked to keep it that way. The only thing she cared about was who her master was, who her next one was going to be, and so on. To sweat the small things was folly.
The trip seemed to be winding down, and Winter began either speaking to herself or asking Aeryn a question. She shook her head and responded, "Everything you have already given is enough. Cocoa..." Aeryn's nostrils flared as if smelling the delicious brew. Puzzlement came upon her face and she asked, "Bourbon?"

Winter clapped her hands together and turned on her heel to face her companion wearing a wide grin "I have a project Aeryn, I intend to use some of my wealth to open up a club of sorts. For that I will need a space, people to cook food, performers and of course alcohol! A staple of any decent establishment is the serving of refreshments and bourbon was a favorite of my father's" She began making wide sweeping gestures, looking somewhat theatrical and even goofy with seemingly no regard for how she looked "Even if we attract mostly vampires that doesn't mean we cant make alcoholic drinks, more alcohol means more orders and poor decisions, poor decisions means more money coming in! It's perfect since I've nothing to do with my time!"The vampire was clearly getting riled up at the idea, still beaming as she spoke "I've even drawn up some concepts for the aesthetic and we can possibly even set up a still in the loft! It'll be a fun little science experiment for us." "Welcome to the end or eras ...

It was not a rarity to see her master get so worked up over a party. The servant didn't even back away from the intensity of the woman before her, and instead allowed Winter to enter her space. It was also not the first she had heard of opening an establishment, but with all of her ideas it was only common some would be lost in the dust cloud that was her mind. It seemed this one was actually happening, however, and Aeryn smiled and nodded.
"What would I run?" Aeryn asked, aware her master had used 'us' instead of some other form of the word. Did that mean she would use the servants of the house, or did she only mean Aeryn herself? "Food..." the slave said to herself, almost drooling at the thought. The girl was small but she rather enjoyed eating anything and everything she could get her hands on.

Winter giggled as she reched forward and squished Aeryn's cheeks "We'll need to teach you how to make drinks, how to direct our staff, how to help keep track of our expenditures, and of course you'll be helping with food, you;ll even help taste the food I prepare.

"It will be wonderful but hard work, but I have faith in you my dearest Aeryn, you've not yet let me down. " Winter clearly was either ignoring the mans desperate dying wheezes and writhing, or simply didn't care "Now come, we must find ourselves some quality oak barrels. Bourbon must be aged properly to get that oh-so-important oaky finish." "Welcome to the end or eras ...

Aeryn was quite pleased to hear she would be helping her master run the pub. It was a strange thought, doing something other than following her around and making sure no ill threats could be lurking in the shadows. The sky really was the limit, she thought, before her perpetually looking tired eyes turned to a belligerent man. It didn't take long to shut him up, though Aeryn wished she had been the one to sully her hands. Her master's were just too pretty to have the red liquid splashed on them. Instead, while Winter spoke, Aeryn extended her ability to muffle the man's dying gasps. In his last few moments he would feel crushing weight surrounding him, and then just like that he was gone.
"I will not let you down," Aeryn said sternly, a bit too fervently. And it was true: she would never let Winter down for as long as she lived. That was the purpose of a slave. Before the wound closed due to the vampire's healing, Aeryn silently asked to take her hand. If she were allowed it, the witch would place the cut finger in her mouth. One of her previous masters made her do this all the time, something about helping the bleeding stop? She didn't remember the reason for it, but it was ingrained in her being much as everything else about her. Letting her master take back her hand, Aeryn touched her warm cheeks after they were squished and smiled. "Witches can age it to your desire. They're good at that."

As expected the copper taste of blood did not even tint the girl's mouth as she sucked on the finger, as her master had already healed. Vampire healing was something to admire, and different vampires would heal at different rates. Her master was a stronger one, and thus healed pretty fast when it came to smaller cuts. There was no use for the gravity witches antics, but habit was indeed hard to break. Aeryn closed her eyes for a moment as warmth pressed against her cheeks, before looking up to her master.
"Lead on," she said lowly, ready to follow Winter to the ends of the earth.
